Where did the Irish patato come from?
Potatoes were brought back from the English colonization of northern America The potato was first cultivated by northern American Indians and was brought back by Sir Walter Raleigh (with tobacco amongst other things). The queen had previously given Sir Raleigh an estate during the plantations in Ireland previously (where Anglo Irish lords were dispossessed of their land and titles and people loyal to the English crown were "planted" in their place). After his return from the new world Raleigh retired to his estate in Ireland and I can only assume brought the potato, since its a starchy tuber it was perfect for the peasants that worked the land, that way they could fill themselves up since usually they had little food.

What is the government stability in Ireland?
As of now, the 4th of December 2009, the government in Ireland has a small majority. As it is made up of two main parties and has the support of some independent politicians, it is always possible that it can fall. Currently Ireland is undergoing some economic problems, and that does not help, because tough decisions have to be made. If all the parties don't agree, then there is a possibility it could fall. For now it is still continuing. A new programme for government has recently been reached, which helps, but there are still difficult decisions to be made which will be unpopular.

Ireland has no postal/zip codes, except in Dublin where the city is divided in postal codes 1-24. A plan for a National PostCode system for Ireland was to be implemented by Jan 2008. There are a number of organisations developing postcode systems for Ireland in advance of a government decision to introduce one in 2009. Potential code systems for Ireland are available to view on the web. However, no official code has been accepted by the Irish Government at this stage, nor is one being used widely by households across the country.
If you are addressing a letter to somewhere in the Republic of Ireland, all you need to know is the main part of the address and the county the town is in. You would put the name of the person it is going to, followed by the number and street name on the next line, followed by the town on the next line, the county on the next line and finishing it with Ireland. So it would be something like this:
Mr. John Doe
1 Main Street
Ballytown
Co. Dublin
Ireland.
Of course, only an American would insert a full stop after a contraction. Work it out yourselves.
Loc Codes Now Available
You can now use Loc8 Codes - an All Ireland Digital Addres code - Smarter than a postcode - see loc8code.com

What is the value of a 1998 Eire 20 Pence coin?
There are still lots of them to be found in Ireland, and anyone that would have travelled to Ireland from then until 2001 might also have them. So as a collector's item, it is not worth much. You did not say if it was a 20p coin, in which case it has very little value, or a 20 pound note, which would have more monetary value, but you can only get it from the Irish Central Bank in Dame Street in Dublin. So unless you are in Ireland, it is not worth travelling for.
